Hi,
Yes, this can be achieve using tagDiv Composer for pages and tagDIv Cloud library to make templates for posts/categories…
You need to stretch the row and set a layout for this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/Jh1pMwDAPv
Thank you!
Hi,
In order to have the author image you’ll need to use a single post template from tagDiv Cloud Library -> https://www.screencast.com/t/xrpnmAlzTEd
Also you can set the single post template individual only for some blocks or global for all post that do not have an individual template.
Thank you!
Hi,
What exactly does not look as in the demo? Please let me know and we will investigate, what demo did you install and what does not look as in the demo after installing it. The default demo does not use any cloud library templates. It uses default templates only.
In the example you provided you use a big grid 5 and below it a block 4. So this template is not suited to be applied for multiple categories. Please use category grids and loops as I mentioned above. Then the template can be applied to all categories and there will be no problem.
Normal blocks and grids will always show the same content according to their filtering. Category grids and loops will show the proper content for each category. Edit that template and instead of the big grid 5 use a category grid, below it use a loop. That would be all there is to it.
For the tags only one template can be set, in general. You can use a loop element in the tag template as the main content, with a sidebar containing a block sorted by latest for example, like these tag template examples https://affiliate.tagdiv.com/#/load/Tag
If you preview and edit one of those templates you can see that a loop element is used
– http://prntscr.com/n3i85w
The loop doesn’t require any filtering, it will do it automatically depending on what is currently viewed. So that same loop can display for example posts that have the tag “reviews” when that tag page is accessed, or posts with the tag “wordpress” when that tag page is accessed.
Please let me know if you have more questions.
Thanks
Hi,
If you get a template for category from tagDiv Cloud Library you can see that there is no blocks set in template, there are set category grid -> https://www.screencast.com/t/h3u2OgOA9gD6 , so when you click on a category -> https://www.screencast.com/t/jCJJUO4SN this template will sort all post after that category automatically ( will be show all posts that have set that category ) -> https://www.screencast.com/t/2VBC3o0BF
If you have more questions please let me know them.
Thank you!
Check if the cloud library plugin is active – http://prntscr.com/n3i0hk
Only then will the cloud library elements available in the composer list.
Hi,
This element is from tagDiv Cloud Library, so in order to use it you’ll need to activate the tagDiv Cloud Library first
-> https://www.screencast.com/t/QldSO9py
-> https://www.screencast.com/t/JNccfftH
Thanks.
I had installed and activated several plugins and discovered that I couldn’t edit any post (i.e., wp-admin/post.php?post=1&action=edit would return a blank page, with no editing interface).
By a process of elimination, I discovered that, by deactivating the tagDiv Cloud Library plugin I could regain editing functionality.
So I started systematically looking for interactions. I started with only (a) tagDiv Composer and (b) tagDiv Cloud Library, I could edit.
But then adding just one of several plugins killed my ability to edit. The ones I’ve tried to add one at a time are: Askimet Anti-Spam, WP Fastest Cache, WP Super Cache, AMP, and then I stopped experimenting.
This appears to be a pretty broad conflict between tagDiv Cloud Library and other plugins.
One thing I’m not clear above with Cloud Library: If I use it to import and customize a template, can I then deactivate Cloud Library? If so, that could be a workaround: just deactivate Cloud Library except during the short period I need it to import/customize a template.
Hi,
In cloud post templates the related articles and more from author are separate elements, so you can place only one if needed – http://prntscr.com/mzgjfm
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-cloud-library-plugin/
For the default predefined post templates the more from author could be removed like this
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/remove-more-from-author-from-the-related-articles/
Please let me know if you have more questions.
Thanks

Hi all,
After you make the update please check if theme plugins are active, usually tagDiv Composer will activate automatic but it needs to be checked, also if you are using cloud template update the tagDiv cloud library and activate it.
https://www.screencast.com/t/n2QCNJRfm
If there is still a problem, please provide some screenshots with the settings you are made for this.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi,
The tagDiv Cloud Library is in our theme since v8.8 -> https://www.screencast.com/t/A7Hs2Fk9ZK -> https://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/5489609?s_rank=1
tagDiv Cloud Library plugin -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-cloud-library-plugin/
Thank you!
Hi,
1. That depends on what the page contains, maybe other factors if used, like row stretching, backgrounds, CSS styling. Best way to check if there are issues would be to copy the homepage content from the backend, into a test page and edit that with WPBakery. Do what is needed, then update and view the page.
A simple page containing normal theme blocks and grids (no flex or cloud library elements) should work just as well with both builders.
To avoid any possible issues it would be best to use just one page builder at all times, if possible.
2. This I can’t say exactly, I have seen users that use such extensions for WPBakery. In some cases there were some issues, but I don’t remember which add on was it about or what the problem was.
If it is possible, ask them if they have a trial version or if they can provide a refund in case there are problems. Be sure to test while the tagDiv composer is inactive, there could be conflicts.
Thanks
Hi,
Unfortunately for posts/category this is the only way, to use a template from tagDiv Cloud Library and edit it with tagDiv Composer, with out tagDiv Cloud Library you can change only the page width.
Also check our documentation for background image/color, this will make your website boxed
Background introduction -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/background-introduction/
Thank you!
Hi,
If you make an update to the theme all settings from theme panel will remain, only the changes from theme files will be override, so first you’ll need to make a full backup to your website.
If you are using child theme please deactivate it until you make the update.
Yes you can use it, just please make sure that you make the settings for envato plugin like in our documentation -> https://tagdiv.com/update-newspaper-theme/ ( also if you are using the envato plugin for update is possible sometimes to not synchronize with the last updates and you’ll need to make the update manually.)
After theme update please check the theme plugins to be updated and activate in specially tagDiv Composer and tagDiv Cloud Library if you are using elements from cloud -> https://www.screencast.com/t/aNq9x55w
Were Recommend to make the update manually, because in this way you’ll get from themeforest the last theme with all files ( plugins ) and documentation.
Thank you!
Hi,
I think that you do not quite understand how our theme is working, please try to check our documentation to understand better how to use our theme.
Newspaper Theme Documentation -> https://tagdiv.com/category/documentation/

tagDiv Cloud Library Tag Templates -> https://tagdiv.com/tagdiv-cloud-library-tag-templates/
Also you do not need to make a different category template for each category ( you do this only if you want to have a different design for a specific category and you’ll set that template on that category ).
Please check our documentation about Block settings guide, there you’ll find the filter section -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
Also please provide some more details about the demo that you have install, and a link were I can see the different from your demo install.

Thank you for your understanding!
Hi,
Those options are only show the sticky menu in tagDiv Composer to help you to edit the sticky menu -> https://www.screencast.com/t/v8o09Sea
If you are using a header from tagDiv Cloud Library and you want to change the sticky type -> https://www.screencast.com/t/dDpQyrh36 also if you want to remove it you can delete the row -> https://www.screencast.com/t/Km5pL3xj or you can hide that zone -> https://www.screencast.com/t/XAtkVq3q -> https://www.screencast.com/t/bTZdQE8Fgm
I think the better option will be to delete the that row from sticky menu.
If you are not using a header from Cloud please check those options -> https://www.screencast.com/t/7FwjpUHrdw
Thank you!
Hi,
That homepage was edit with tagDiv Composer to get that layout, there is one homepage in tagDiv Cloud Library that have a closer layout ( Homepage Default Demo ) -> https://www.screencast.com/t/lcCE6H8FnyQ
Thank you!
I just purchased Newspaper 9 yesterday to use on new in-development WP site. As part of the installation process, I installed tagDiv Cloud Library. No problem, until… I activated it. Then I was no longer able to reach wp-admin, getting a 503 error.
The only way I fixed it was to manually remove tp-cloud-library directory from the plugins directory. I cycled through this a couple of times to assure myself that Cloud Library is the problem.
Any idea why I can’t use this plugin?
Hi There,
I’m having a similar issue as the OP. I’m getting this error:
Warning: getimagesize(https://staging1.nonstopdestination.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/nsd_white.png): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found in /home/nonstopd/staging/1/wp-content/plugins/td-cloud-library/shortcodes/header/tdb_header_logo.php on line 639
I disabled all plugins except for Tagdiv composer and library, and I’m still getting this error.
I contacted my host to make sure all settings are correct as per Tagdiv’s requirements, and they are.
I always get the error when I add my logo to the header. When I remove the logo, the error is gone.
One issue I wasn’t able to solve is the max_input_vars. Three different support people from my host have changed the number from 1000 to 30000, and they all confirmed it has changed, but the system status is still showing 1000. My host has no idea why it’s showing the wrong number.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Calin for your response, but within the options of Newspaper plugins it doesn’t appear the Cloud Library. I have another option to modify the width to the size of the screen?
Hi,
Please be notice that the tagDiv Composer is made for build page and edit templates, not create content for posts, just template for post, page, categories…
Please read our documentation about tagDiv Composer tutorial -> https://tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-page-builder-basics/
tagDiv Cloud Library plugin -> https://tagdiv.com/what-is-the-cloud-library/
Thank you for your understanding.
Hi,
Please check our documentation for the category template -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/category-templates/ also using the tagDiv Cloud Library you can import others category templates and edit theme with tagDiv Composer to achieve the layout you want.
Thank you!
Hello,
The demo is a wide theme, but when we install it on our site it shows up with less width. I’ve spent the last week trying to make my theme look like the demo. It does not seem like it’s possible to do without coding.
I have created several cloud templates. You must create a new one for each category page which is time consuming. It seems there should be a way to create one new category page, use that as the default, and have the theme figure out how to assign the posts labelled with that category to show up on the page. I don’t see anyway to do that which is why I’m having to create a new category page for each of my categories.
That’s time consuming, but then with regards to tags it seems you cannot even do this. I see no way to assign a different page to each tag. So you’re either stuck with not using the cloud library or using it and having all your tag pages pull posts from the same tag. This makes no sense. Again, there should be a way for the filter to figure out the right posts to pull. Once you set the filter on a cloud tag page, then it pulls posts from only that filter. So now you’re stuck with a page with the right customizations, but it won’t change per tag. So you have all the same posts showing up on each tag page!
If this is all true and there’s no way to do this, then we cannot recreate the demo look.
If true, the theme should not even be allowed to be listed as a themeforest theme. I just want to be sure I’m not missing something otherwise I’ll start posting complaints and ask for a refund. The $50 I paid is nothing compared to how much time I’ve spent wasted on this theme. Please let me know if it is not possible to make the theme look like the demo, including wider tag pages that update per tag without paying for customizations to the code.
Sincerely,
Lisa
Hi,
Our theme already have this related articles -> https://www.screencast.com/t/xUaEmVknW , using a single post template from tagDiv Cloud Library and edit it with tagDiv Composer and set the related article were you want to be show ( to top of article, to bottom, use drag and drop ), unfortunately this can not be set inside the post content.
Thank you for your understanding
Hello,
Actually the composer does allow this 🙂
Please read this guide: https://tagdiv.com/customize-articles-with-single-post-templates/
You do not need Wpbakery or Elementor.
Simply create custom templates for your posts using the cloud library and the tagdiv composer
Thank you!
